Beginning life in Fawley Power Station, these Philips pendants spent over 50 years illuminating its iconic turbine hall. All original components remain preserved including an imposing grey enamelled shade with a polished finned aluminium gallery designed to cool internal components. Featuring cast manufacturers markings, these pendants are iconically industrial. Perfect for creating drama in bars and restaurants.
Lighting design in the UK benefitted from a free market. Different companies were working at the same time, designing and producing similar products for the same market. Often with only slight differences in their style, they constantly upgraded and improved their original designs. The products we salvage come from the old industrial heartland of England. This area of the UK was once the boiler room of the British economy - from the potteries of Stoke, through the engineering works of Birmingham, to the wool, textile and cotton mills of Oldham and Manchester.
View all lights from UKThese pendants are part of a haul of varying vintage lights salvaged from the iconic Fawley Power Station in Hampshire, UK. Celebrating their history and heritage, they've had their characterful signs of age - such as spots of wear and patina - carefully preserved by our workshop team. Meaning you get a light that is both ready for modern-day use and truly unique.
Each light is supplied with a new screw (E27) lamp holder, 2mtrs of suspension chain, elephant grey braided cable and ceiling mounting plate. If you would prefer another colour cable or an E26 lamp holder (USA), please just ask.

Great light. It looks very smart. I was initially worried that it might be slightly big for the room (we don't have high ceilings) but it looks great and I am really pleased with it.

I was very happy with the products I received. They arrived quickly and were packed brilliantly and professionally. There was no way they were going to be damaged in transit.
